In episode 540 of 'Coffee with Butterscotch,' the brothers dig into the messy art of indie game pricing, from Levelhead’s strange sales patterns to how discounts really move the needle. They share experiments with YouTube Shorts, what the engagement data says, and how community feedback loops into both development and marketing. It’s a conversation about sales strategies, visibility, and why marketing can’t live outside the game development process.
